Installing Tomcat Manually

This was a little pain.

  1. Install Tomcat using HomeBrew: brew install tomcat
  2. Soft link the directory to your home: ls -s /path/to/tomcat/libexec tomcat
  3. Change permissions on the conf/ and lib/ directories: chmod o+r {conf, lib}
  4. Eclipse > Servers > New Server > Tomcat Version
